    Artec Studio 12 software is for professional 3D scanning and data processing. Easy for beginners and experienced individuals, this software has enhanced 3D intelligence, speed, and ergonomics.

     

    Improvements include a smart base removal tool, automatic sensitivity settings, smart memory management, and ultra-compact data compression.  

     

    It offers three different modes for workflow: Autopilot, Manual Mode, and Build as You Scan.

    1. Autopilot is perfect for beginners as it only requires a few easy steps. All you need to do is scan your object and then enter autopilot to process all of your data automatically.
    2. Manual mode allows you to scan your object and choose the post processing setting yourself. This mode is typically better suited for advanced users.  
    3. Build as You Scan offers instant results with no post-processing. Simply move the scanner around the object to develop as you go.

     

    With global registration that is up to 20 times faster than its predecessor, Artec Studio 12 allows you full control at maximum speed. The smart base removal tool allows your scanner to detect curved or uneven base types, removing the base surface and all the data below it. The software is also capable of analyzing your data and automatically choosing the optimal settings for the surface you are scanning. The upgraded memory system only stores what is important on the RAM and lets you know what can be discarded so you can free up space for other processing.

     

    Equipped with a wireless 3D mouse, users can easily access and navigate the software's interface in 3D. Additionally, user-friendly panels with hints and useful keyboard shortcuts have been implemented for a better workflow.

     

    Two versions are available, the PROFESSIONAL or the ULTIMATE. PROFESSIONAL is for use with Artec 3D scanners and ULTIMATE is for use with Artec 3D scanners and 3rd party sensors.
